I had the issue at work and I asked my Systems team to configure the share
correctly on the Linux side of the things.
Y: on /cygdrive/y type smbfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
Z: on /cygdrive/z type smbfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
The Z: drive is the "default share", and on which the .exe files are not
executable.
$ pwd
/cygdrive/z
$ cat hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello world!\n");
return 0;
}
$ gcc -o helloZ hello.c
$ ./helloZ
-bash: ./helloZ: Permission denied
The Y: drive is the same directory on Linux, exported a bit differently:
$ cd /cygdrive/y
$ gcc -o helloY hello.c
$ ./helloY
Hello world!
$ strip hello{Y,Z}
$ diff hello{Y,Z}
$
This is how the Y: drive had been exported from Linux (ours it an AD
environment too, BTW):
$ tail -n 6 /etc/samba/smb.conf
[lavr]
path = /export/home/lavr
comment = Anton's Local Home Directory
read only = No
hosts allow = [:snipped:]
acl allow execute always = True
